BACKPACK BLESSING

Join us as we come together to support local students and families as they prepare for a new school year. In partnership with Reynoldsburg City Schools and the Reynoldsburg Police Department, our goal is to collect and donate 200 new backpacks filled with school supplies for students in need throughout our community. The backpacks will be delivered directly to local schools on August 20. 

During worship on August 16, all children, teens, and young adults are invited to bring their backpacks for a special Backpack Blessing as we pray for a safe, successful, and Christ-filled school year. 

Suggested Supplies

Please fill a new backpack with any of the following items:

• Crayons

• Markers

• Tissues

How You Can Help
